I love personalized monograms so much, I have to hold myself back from overdoing it. Not too long ago I discovered I was wearing both the bold monogrammed cuff featured here and a tote with my (bold) monogram, too. It wasn’t on purpose. That morning I just wasn’t paying attention to what items I was choosing.
There is nothing wrong with wearing lots of bold monograms at once. It’s just not what I prefer. Whether in my home or on my person, I like my initialed items to create a unique and subtle signature look. To do that, I keep it to just one per outfit (generally, but there are exceptions, of course!). When decorating a room, I like to do the same.
Hope you like the roundup I present here. Some version of each is still available at this posting (one is even on sale).
Happy monogramming! ~Janis Lyn Johnson
